white’>The following table lists state and local full-time equivalent (FTE) employees per 10,000 residents. Since education employment is so large — roughly half the workforce — it’s excluded from these calculations and is presented separately below. Note that there’s a much
larger variation in the figures covering only state government employment. How
responsibilities are divided between states and their localities varies
considerably, so combined state and local government employment provides for a
more comprehensive measure.
